I cannot get the sprays from either the bottom or the handpieces to work. I only get a short "gurgle" of fluid when I first press the controls. I have cleaned both the top and bottom cap and insert parts, and I have turned the machine off and on numerous times, have allowed it several minutes to warm up. But still no luck.

I have a B60 Special edition Keurig. I turned the power on and the "not ready" indicator just never goes away. Consequently when I insert the k-cup and pull the lever down to activate, none of the lights flash so I cannot select or brew. The machine is out of warfranty - but it is only 2 years old. Surely I should get more mileage out of it. I use Britta filtered water in it...

What color is the air flow indicator supposed to be? Mine is yellow but I have no suction. I have read that some people have red, others yellow. I have cleared out all hoses and cleaned the filters with a shop vac, still cannot get it to pick up. Just keeps blowing the dirt out the back at me :(

Hi there, the unit may be experiencing something other than a blockage. Perhaps the dirt canister is not put back into place properly and the unit is sucking through there instead of through the hose.Check to see if the lid and the canist ...

Kenmore Canister Vac, Progressive, 25512 255513 model. Brush won't turn. One end of the brush roller, end closest to belt, is off center which is keeping it from turning freely. The end cap is like a square. Other ends turns fine. Do these end caps come off? If so how? Can't get it to budge. This is exactly what is keep brush roller from turning.

I own a Halo vacuum cleaner and I cannot get the wheel to turn, the belt is on securely but it still will not turn, what am I doing wrong?

My Hoover Whisper Cyclonic is collecting the dirt but not taking it into the cylinder. The brushes were at one point starting and stoping due to the belt periodically turning,now the brushes are turning and the dirt just collects and I'm starting to smell a an oder like rubber burning.I've taken it apart and tried to make sure the is no clog. The one hose that I can't check is in the back right base, above and left of the right back wheel.

Bissell Pro Heat 7901 will spay through hose but not the floor and red flow indicator will not spin. So we took the housing off and after unclogging a hose running to the hearter, my husband unhooked the hose that goes to the flow indicator, blew in it and it started spinning. Put the deep cleaner back together, tried to use it and nothing. What else can we try? Can't afford to put it in the shop right now. Thanks in advance.

I borrowed my friends bissell to clean my carpet. It's the 7901. He brought it over and told me that it only sprayed out of the attachment hose. He said he couldn't figure out what was wrong. I'm no vacuum technician but, I am a mechnic. I decided to ...

There's a strip of pet hair that doesn't get picked up only on the left side of the roller, like it's rolling all of it up and kicking it out that side. I have to work from right to left to get it all up. is this a suction problem?

My Janome Harmony 8100 will occasionally stop and give me a System Error #1 - I cannot find anything about this error. It is a computerized machine with 70 stiches and attachable embroidery hoop. I first started getting this error with the hoop and now get it when I am just sewing. As soon as the needle goes down to the bobbin, I get the error. The machine freezes and the only way to get rid of the error is to turn the machine off. Sometimes I can get the machine going again, but now it wil

Floor Attachment I took off my floor attachment, but now the belt seems to be off and I can't seem to get it back on right. I can't use the attachment and I don't know why it's so hard to figure this out. They say, just turn it to belt off, but when i turn it it lift's it up and can't line up with the belt off label. Then, when I turn it the other way, it's off. So I've been trying to pull it off so when it lines up with belt off, it's off. But the I turn it the other way and it's still off a

Try this,\015\012\015\012With the floor nozzle off the machine spin the belt lifter around until the red arrows match. If you look at the side that attaches to the vacuum you should be able to see the belt up on the hook. If is not on t ...

I just purchased a Sebo Airbelt D canister vacuum. I plugged it in and used it for ten seconds then turned it off, retracted the power cord and now cannot get the power cord out of the machine. Did I not spend enough money to get a quality product?
Does anyone have any idea how to get the power cord out without breaking the machine?

I have a Hoover Windtunnel U 6439-900. The agitator brush will not turn. I installed 2 new belts, # 38528034, and # 38528-035 There is so much slack in belt # 3852034 (brush drive) that it cannot grip the brush. There does not seem to be any adjustment to take up the slack. I've put in new belts twice now & cannot get brush to rotate or tighten the belt to the brush.

I have a kirby sentria vaccum carpet shampoo system and I cannot get the shampoo suction head to work! It comes on but the belt is not turning. I have tried taking it off and looking at the assembly but no luck. And I have tried turning the belt engage lever to off and on to see if it makes any diference.

I had the same problem at first but figured it out. Make sure before you put it on the vacuum itself, that the shampooing unit is completely together. The belt needs to be taunt like it would be when the brush is turning. Once you put it on and turn ...

Rival model CM1100 coffee maker: I can not get the coffee carafe in the right position. Should it lock in? Sometimes the coffee does not enter the pot and overflows onto the counter. Should the handle be on the left or the right or maybe the center? Please help me. I am not a coffee drinker and when I try to serve it to friends, I end up with an embarassing mess.

I have a Bissell 3920 and the beater bar only turns when I'm pulling the vacuum.How do you get the end caps off of the beater bar to clean it out? This has happened before when it was under warranty and I was told to remove caps and clean frequently.I am afraid prying them off will break the vacuum.It also has very low suction and I have cleaned the filters and the belt is fine.Will cleaning the inside of the beater bar fix my problem?

Steam buggy water reservoir cap has apparently been cross threaded, and cannot be removed by twisting or other "encouragement." If I cut it off, where can I get a replacement? Can the machine be used as is by taking the insert out of the cap and filling the reservoir through the opening? Is there a current manufacturer of this product?

You need to completely annihilate the plastic cap by cutting it off and destroying the remaining plastic to expose the stainless steel insert/plug. You can use either a pipe wrench or 11mm wrench to turn the insert counter-clockwise to unscrew. You w ...

I have a Singer Model #4562 sewing machine. I am having trouble adjusting the tension. Everytime I try and turn the knob to adjust the bobbin just gets looser. Right now it just snags and gets caught underneath the material and bunches up into a big ball. There is a lot of thread inside the bobbin case that came out of the bobbin and has to be cut out to free the material. How do I fix this mess.
I am a novice at this. I have not sewn in several years and would like to sew a few quilts

A friend used my Bissell Proheat Clearview shampooer, and didn't wash out the shamppoo bottle nor turn the dial to water only after using. The flow assembly on the bottle was destroyed. I bought a new bottle but still can't get the shampoo to flow. Hope you can help.

My bissell 1699 series will not spray water, the flow indicator barely moves, but when left tank on it leaked all over floor, so the water when left unattended came out. When I first hooked up the machine black stuff was on my carpet when I first sprayed.

Eureka TRUE HEPA Whirlwind Bagless same problem seems...roller just stopped...took everything apart and turned it on just in time to see belt melt...I was able to get the end caps off both sides at first and now can't seem to get the one side. Really love this vacuum! Don't want to have to part with it!

If you are able to remove one end cap, the brush roller shaft can be removed and the other bearing is exposed for examination and removal of the hair that probably is clogging it. After cleaning and reassembly the brush roller should rotate freely. C ...
